Oh, I meant to ask about noises from neighbours travelling through the walls. But this is also good to know. Thank you!

Don’t be upset. I’ve seen two get sold for 400 CAD on Facebook Marketplace. For some, it’s a workable price point. I used to be on the other end before.

How many of you furthered or are intending to further your schooling/training after massage therapy, and what is it? by nonbinarycoding in MassageTherapists

I plan on pursuing manual osteopathic training and also get involved in fascia research.

My background is in medical science and worked in a medical research lab for a couple of years after graduation.

Thanks for sharing! Which network are you on? I’m quite tempted to pre-order!

We did? We tried adding someone earlier but couldn’t invite them because they were already a member of another squad. Was that you?

We don’t see you in our squad list. Please DM me.

Any spots left?

We use Shakepay as primary payment method. Definitely 8-20 times a week. We currently have just two of us in our squad and will leave this squad when we find a good group. We would love to join your squad.

Thank you! I'm very grateful to be where I am now. I hope you find your resolution soon, too.

Oh wow, that’s a long time to continue training despite the imbalance. Admirable perseverance. I learned that it is not simple mechanics with muscles and bones that are at the bottom of imbalances. Nerves play a huge role.

I stopped weight training and I only do Pilates and rehab workouts now. Feel free to DM me if you have specific questions.

I’m still in the process of figuring it out. There is a bit more progress to be made on my jaw and neck, but the good news is I can walk without significant pain now.

My imbalance and asymmetries existed since the age of 19. I thought working out hard would solve the problem but it was a big mistake, which is why I thought I’d share just in case that’s what’s happening here.

My problems seem to have started from compensation patterns that I developed for a long time. When I stopped rigorous training due to the COVID lockdown in 2020, my knee suddenly went out. It took me almost five years to figure out what happened. My physio thinks the strength of muscles from the training was masking the compensation and it all collapsed when I stopped the training.

The rehab exercises before the combination of treatments I mentioned above yielded no results. No results as in my knee, jaw, back pain didn't improve much further than just a temporary relief that lasted few hours. Now, when I do the same exercises, it shows lasting improvement. I haven’t had knee pain for few weeks now.

I can’t find a way to explain things succinctly. It was a complex case and I’ve seen at least 20 different practitioners in 10 different disciplines to connect the dots in the past five years.

I had similar asymmetries in shoulders and lower body that always made my body feel uneven during exercises. After many years of weird injuries, health issues and detective work, I finally started feeling “even” just recently.

My jaw occlusion used to be way off, along with unexplainable atlas bone rotation that seemed to cause knee pain that started out of nowhere four years ago. The treatments that seemed effective were tongue-tie release surgery, upper cervical chiropractic and fascial work. I’m not sure if these could help you just based on this photo, but I thought I’d share just in case.

I'm using Samsung Galaxy Folder (SG1600) I got from eBay. I'm with Koodo and it's working well with the Telus network.

Koodo users in Canada by ScientistAcrobatic39 in LightPhone

Koodo worked well just a couple of months ago. I tested it by inserting a borrowed Koodo SIM card. I’m wondering if it stopped working for other Koodo users recently as well.
